  • PHP runs most of the web. On 21 October 2026 it got a critical security hole called PHP2Shell. It is two bugs inside PHP itself (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619), both rated 9.2 out of 10. An attacker needs no login. Your code can be perfect and the server is still exposed. https://t.co/I9ZuRNE…

  • The flaws behind php2shell have been in PHP for over a decade, back to 5.4. Two CVSS 9.2 bugs (CVE-2026-109618, CVE-2026-109619) allow unauthenticated remote code execution, and your app doesn't need its own bug. WordPress, Drupal and Joomla were all shown exploitable.
